- Sergey Brin reaffirmed his conviction that employees should work 60 hours a week
- The co-founder of Google is also a defender of return to office policies

The co-founder of Google, Sergey Brin, reaffirmed that his workers should consider giving up to 60 hours per week to their work.
An internal memo seen by The New York Times A bit once again urging workers to devote 60 hours per week to work so that Google has specifically followed Microsoft and Openai in the AI race.
Brin is also an obvious defender of obtaining work for his perceived productivity services, adding that workers may want to consider visiting the office at least every day of the week to get things done.
Longer hours
“60 hours per week is the ideal point of productivity,” said strand by discussing how underperformant workers can be “demoralizing” for others: “a certain number of people work less than 60 hours and a small number put at least to get out of it.”
Without forgetting that professional exhaustion is always one thing, especially among developers, Brin has also called for increased use of artificial intelligence tools.
Of course, Google endeavors to develop better AI models, but that should not prevent workers from exploiting current technologies to make them “most effective coders and AI scientists in the world,” he said.
Brin is not the only business manager in favor of extreme working hours – the CEO of Infosys, Narayana Mildy, urged Indian workers to devote once and for all 70 hours per week.
Big Tech also turned to office work, increasing their policies back to the office of three days a week to five – Amazon and Dell are two of these companies, which were both welcomed with workers dissatisfaction.
While we continue our long-term return to the “normal” in a post-paidmal world, the definition of “normal” continues to move as the gap between the desires of the worker and the employer becomes more obvious.
